How temporary is temporary?  All of man's works eventually crumble and
decay.  No man-made feature is permanent.  On a long enough timescale,
no geological feature is permanent either.

We shouldn't map a one-off.  But such facilities are likely to operate for
months,
if not years.  Testing and vaccination facilities are generally not located
in
places like hospitals and doctors to minimize infection.  Often open-air
for the same reason, which means they are going to be building=roof
or building=marquee.  Most won't be constructed to last decades but
will be there for many months.
